Laos biedt tropische regenwouden, bergen, boeddhistische kloosters, tempels, bergstammen en bedreigde diersoorten. Lange tijd was Laos [onderdeel van het Franse Indo-China] een geïsoleerd land. Maar begin jaren negentig drong ook in Birma de glasnost door en gingen de grenzen open.

Hoofdstad van Laos: Vientiane.
